Re: one more thing...
If LMODEM times out and you are dumped back to the link, it
endlessly repeats t he last sentence or so it tried to send. is
there ANY possible interrupt of this other than doing an at-sign
c and closing the link, then opening again, logging in again,
refusing to attach (if you attach you are back there again!) and
then killing the job from outside?
I would have thought there might be a more convenient way out
of that trap.
Thanks,

Try sending a control-U (^U) every time it sends the sentence. You may
have to repeate this up to ten times untill LMODEM aborts sending that
sector on error count. Note that control-U = <NAK> so LMODEM thinks
that your local modem program has sent a <NAK> 10 times in a row and
gives up when the error count is reached.

P.S. Be sure to wait untill the entire sector is sent each time befor
typing ctrl-U of LMODEM will flush it as line noise..
